l36tols1 Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 650 hp Viper > 540 hp Mustang (guessing if they are in the same price range) But it does look good though.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinner Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 650 hp Viper > 540 hp Mustang (guessing if they are in the same price range) But it does look good though.. since the current cobar stickers at $40k and the viper will be every bit of $80k or better (pricing not available per website) I highly doubt it the ford will be much over $50 sticker ( god knowns what they will jack it up too at the dealerships). oh and teh viper srt-10 is only going to have 600 hp. but yes the car looks great.

Nitrousbird Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Gag.. Am I the only person who absolutely hates the new mustang? Hands down the best looking mustang was the good ol 93 Cobra. Agreed. Besides, with typical dealer markup, it will be priced in the Z06 range AGAIN, and still get its heavy ass whooped by the Z06 (that also has way more features, handles better, better gas mileage, looks better, higher top speed, quicker acceleration, better braking, higher class of car...must I go on?).

TTQ B4U Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 exactly.....love the car, looks great. however, at the price it will command...no thanks. not anywhere worth it for me. I'd rather have a nice C6 or used ZO6 drop top and put a few bucks into it to make it my own. I'm in love. Any idea what the price tag will be? Anybody need a kidney, Ive got an extra I can sell...

2stangs Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 FORD UNVEILS TRIO OF VEHICLES FOR NEW YORK AUTO SHOW, INCLUDING MOST POWERFUL MUSTANG AND F-150 New, limited-edition vehicles developed with hip hop guru Funkmaster Flex and hot rodder Chip Foose will join the 2008 Ford Shelby GT500KR – the most powerful Mustang to ever – at the 2007 New York International Auto Show. 2008 Ford Shelby GT500KR roars to life in spring 2008. 2008 Ford F-150 Foose Edition hits the streets in fall 2007. 2008 Ford Expedition Funkmaster Flex Edition to launch in fall 2007. Ford’s customization business continues to grow: up 50 percent in 2006. DEARBORN, Mich., March 30, 2007 – Ford unveiled three new limited-edition models today – the Shelby GT500KR, the F-150 Foose Edition and the Ford Expedition Funkmaster Flex Edition – all of which will be make their public debut at the 2007 New York International Auto Show. The trio of vehicles, including the most powerful pickup and most powerful Mustang ever from Ford, demonstrates how the company is leveraging key partnerships to create exciting new products. “Marrying great Ford products like Mustang, F-150 and Expedition to strong partners like Shelby, Foose and Flex creates vehicles that are irresistible to customers who want to make the boldest statement they can,” said Cisco Codina, group Vice President of North America Marketing, Sales and Service. “We are seeing more demand for special wheels and accessories and, of course, from-the-factory packages like the new Eddie Bauer Taurus X and Harley F-150s.” Ford research indicates that 62 percent of full-size pickup truck buyers purchase accessories for their vehicles, and 73 percent buy parts through their dealer. Truck buyers spend an average of $1700 in accessories. Roughly 30 percent of crossover utility vehicle buyers purchase accessories, and they are more likely to make accessory purchases at the dealership. Ford’s overall customization business grew 50 percent in 2006 and could potentially double its business again in the next two years, driven by factory-customized products and a hard focus on wheels, appearance packages and electronics such as DVD players and navigation systems. “This is really a fashion industry,” says Peter MacGillivray, vice president, Marketing and Communications for the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA). “Consumers want to put their personal stamps on everything they buy – from personalized rings to build-a-teddy-bear – and everybody knows that ‘you are what you drive.’” 2008 Ford Shelby GT500KR: Launching next spring, the 2008 Ford Shelby GT500KR model features a 5.4-liter supercharged V-8 with a Ford Racing Power Upgrade Pack that boosts engine output to an estimated 540 horsepower. Produced in a limited edition of 1,000 units, the Shelby GT500KR coupe comes with a custom carbon composite hood with scoops and stainless steel twist-down hood pins, a lower front air dam with chrome-trimmed functional brake ducts and large 14-inch Brembo front brakes. The suspension has been modified with an emphasis on race-inspired handling. Drawing inspiration from the classic 1968 KR model, the Shelby GT500KR also features 40 th Anniversary exterior badging, unique striping and a distinctive interior with Carroll Shelby-signature embroidered seats and a 40 th Anniversary numbered dash plaque. 2008 Ford F-150 Foose Edition: Hitting the streets this fall is one tough boulevard cruiser – the 2008 Ford F-150 Foose Edition styled by custom street rod designer Chip Foose. Lowered, but looking even more hunkered down thanks to its big 22-inch wheels, the special Foose F-150 sports bold racing stripes that start at the edge of the hood and then thin out over the front fenders to run the length of the vehicle only to widen again at the tailgate. Planned for an initial run of 500 units, Foose gave the F-150 a new grille with horizontal bars as well as rocker moldings to further help lower the vehicle visually while the cab is accented by Chip Foose signature headrests and floor mats, a unique leather-wrapped center console and a Foose-designed serialization plate showing the VIN and build-sequence numbers. Powering the Foose Edition F-150 is a 450-horsepower supercharged Triton V8 that puts out 500 foot-pounds of torque at 4,000 rpm, making it the most powerful Ford F-150 since the 2004 Ford SVT Lightning. When it hits the streets, it will be the most powerful half-ton pickup on the market. 2008 Ford Expedition Funkmaster Flex Edition: Coming to dealer showrooms this fall, the 2008 Ford Expedition Funkmaster Flex Edition turns the hot Expedition concept vehicle created by hip hop DJ Funkmaster Flex into a limited-production, short wheelbase SUV. The Expedition FMF will sport a two-tone Colorado Red-and-Black paint scheme with Orange pinstriping and special chrome badging, a custom front fascia with integrated fog lamps, side skirts, rear fascia and 20-inch chrome-clad aluminum wheels. Inside, a matching Colorado Red instrument panel, console bezel, shifter and switch bezels blend with four leather captains chairs with red stitching, FMF red logo headrests, and a red-stitched steering wheel. Rounding out the package is an exclusive numbered dash plaque signed by Funkmaster Flex and SIRIUS satellite Radio. The Expedition FMF Edition also sports a 340-watt Audiophile™ Sound System, MP3 player audio jack, Powerfold™ third-row seating, heated and cooled front seats and an optional navigation system, power liftgate and rear-seat DVD entertainment system.

Got-Boost? Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 haha foxes are hideous!! No shit compared to the SN95 and later.... I think the S197 looks GREAT bringing back some of the older retro look. However, others are trying to do it more and more and it doesn't always work... I bet if it was only 3,200lbs. you guys/gals would be singing a different tune... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
